The Jets reached for McCaffrey and never recovered. Grade: F. The rest of the league had time to spare on Luke McCaffrey; the Jets did not wait, grabbing him 49 spots ahead at the Round 4 slot. A F, plain and simple.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
However the rest shakes out, Rosemy-Jacksaint at that price is a win they earned. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
There is no soft landing here; this class has to massively overperform just to matter.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 2 they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick40
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
A tidy bit of business in No. 40, where Amarius Mims graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
They reached into another round for Brenden Rice, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick101
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke McCaffrey in the 101st pick, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111
Rnd4
Spencer Rattler
They paid sticker price for Spencer Rattler in slot 111, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick114
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at Round 4, Pick 14 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick138
Rnd5
Nelson Ceaser
A real head-scratcher, Nelson Ceaser in No. 138 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick142
Rnd5
Will Shipley
They will replay Will Shipley at the 142nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dominique Hampton
They talked themselves into Dominique Hampton at Round 5, Pick 26, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Decamerion Richardson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Decamerion Richardson in pick 185. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at pick No. 240 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick257
Rnd7
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the Round 7 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
